The model is sturdy, and has two dart shooters on the sides. What it most interesting though, is the bottom of the fighter, of which I took a picture as well. It has a lightsaber hilt in a new colour! Apparently LEGO found a new way to add a chrome coating to the lightsaber hilt, which gives it a chrome look, although it is less bright than the 'old' chrome hilts. However, it's a lot shinier and brighter than the coatings on the Agents sets :

yeah Rayman, im really not looking forward to seeing the price tag on this one...its gna hurt._________________a V8 engine has power thats no lie, but an arc-welder operates at six thousand degrees Celcius...i would rather spend $100 AUD on an arc welder for power thanks.

Father's Day? I don't know where you're located, but Father's Day is in June in the US. How can you wait until June for that set? I know I won't._________________Will litigate (or tactically consult) for food.

I will definitely be getting 2 of this thing. My son has been complaining for awhile now that he didn't get a Vader TIE so this will be exciting._________________The Jinja Ninja wrote: The extended edition includes those scenes (which were replaced with the boulder sequence in the Raiders we know and love) as well as some revisions to the rest of the movie including 'Belloq shot first'

Excellent. The return of the chrome lightsaber is great news. I'm looking forward to Vader's TIE Advanced. I have the Tie Collection so it will be interesting to see what changes Lego have made to Vader's own. Obviously it's a different colour now. _________________FBTB: The Final Chapter
See it come to an end, starting Monday 2nd February 2009.

I like the new changes and I'm looking forward to this set!
The use of the new slopes and large round plates really enhance the look of the TIE advanced and bring it closer to the movie model.
Hopefully we'll get the new printed Darth from the 10188 DS.
Chrome lightsaber hilts are still in a few sets, so why do folks think they have disappeared?
(Admittedly some very high price sets 10188 or older sets still in production like 6211 Star destroyer)_________________

I got the set delivered today.
I love the Anniversary Box!
But unfortunately no Chrome Vader included (bought the Set via Bricklink in USA, so I had some hopes)._________________~Andi
